Christopher, check out the following site. These are registry tweaks by Kelly Theriot a Microsoft MVP. If you decide to try, make sure you back up your registry before proceeding. http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm Also, check this site for performance tweaks which just about covers everything. http://www.tweakxp.com/performance_tweaks.aspx

For the Kelly Theriot site check item # 31

There is absolutely nothing wrong with NAV2003! You will notice no improvement by upgrading to 2004, except the scanning takes longer. It is supposed to offer adware/malware protection, but for the life of me it does nothing for my system. I still pick up the bad stuff when I run my Adaware and Spybot scans. I have no idea what spyware it is detecting or preventing.

Can you post a list of all the items listed in your startup of msconfig? Did you get the pacs-portal website address from your security area post??
